Local Label Love: Kapow Kids

️Who: Andrea Goulding, KaPow Kids

️Where are you based? Carlton North, Melbourne, Australia

️When was KaPow Kids established? July 2013

️Why did you decide to create a children’s clothing label? It started as a hobby because I was a bit bored on my days off from my part-time job as an architect. I needed a creative outlet on my days home with Flynn (now 3 years old), so started an Etsy shop selling appliqué tees and onesies for babies.

️KaPow has printed clothing and dribs (dribble bibs) in funky easy-to-wear shapes just perfect for busy kiddies. Where do you find your inspiration? Most of it is just in my head. KaPow reflects my own style and love of quirky prints. But I do find inspiration everywhere I look. I’m always on the lookout for cool prints and constantly searching for different and unusual fabrics. Pinterest and Instagram are great for sourcing ideas.

️There’s a lot of market competition, how do you keep ahead of the pack? When I first stared a year ago, there wasnt too much competition, but I’ve noticed one year on there seems to be lots of little cool handmade labels popping up every day – which can be quite scary. I hope that the name and the brand is strong enough to withstand all the new competition. We are constantly bringing out new things which I think helps. I am always learning and trying to improve things, and also working on creating more of my own fabric designs.

️Is it possible to have a work/life balance? I’m so glad that through doing KaPow, I can work from home. It makes it so much easier to look after Flynn. But having your own business means you are pretty much constantly working, which can be a little stressful, but luckily I love my job.

️Best piece of business advice you’ve received? To be honest I haven’t had anyone really give me any business advice yet! I welcome any advice though, as sometimes I seriously am just winging it!

️How has Instagram changed the way you advertise your brand? I am addicted to Instagram, it’s the perfect platform for me to engage with followers and fellow makers. I really hope now that Facebook has taken over Instagram (Facebook is Instagram’s parent company) that they don’t make it difficult to showcase your brand to followers, like what’s happened to Facebook.

️Favourite KaPow item? How do you like to see it worn? I am loving the girly prints at the moment, especially the fabrics that have a touch of neon in them, like the ice-cream and watermelon prints, they have been so popular.

️What’s next for KaPow? I’m trying to work on the winter range now, sourcing some cute fleecy fabric for harem trackies and hooded vests, slouch hats and snoods (scarves). Some prints include penguins, deers and huge stars.

  5. CBD GUMMIES Our CBD Gummies give you a flavourful blast of wellness-boosting CBD, with a wide variety of formulations to choose from. Our gummies have been formulated for everything from sleep and superfood supplements to multivitamins, diet aids, and more! If you’re looking for a CBD product that’s sweet on the taste buds and potent enough to serve your wellness needs — no matter what those needs are — we’ve got just the gummy for you! CBD is a great natural wellness product, due to the way it interacts with the body’s endocannabinoid system, which helps the body maintain homeostasis (balance) in several of its key functions, including mood, memory, sleep, appetite, pain and inflammation, motor control, and more. Because it’s sort of a Swiss Army knife when it comes to overall wellness, CBD is an ideal compound to match with other vitamins and nutrients to make a more robust wellness aid. CBDfx’s gummy collection gives a wide range of products, from the original mixed-berry CBD-only gummies to multivitamins for men and women to superfoods, like turmeric and spirulina, to an apple cider vinegar gummy, to a restful sleep formulation, and a biotin gummy for hair and nails. All of these gummies have great nutrient profiles and are a healthy way to add pure, natural CBD to your daily regimen. And as gummies, they taste great, too!! CBD Gummies: A Delicious Way to Enjoy CBDWhat Are CBD Gummies?CBD gummies are edible products that contain hemp-derived CBD. These small, round chewables look and taste much like the sweets that are so loved for their burst of flavour and chewability — only our gummies pack a CBD punch! Our CBD gummies not only contain organic broad spectrum CBD, but also other all-natural ingredients. These ingredients give you delicious flavour and delightful texture, plus additional benefits to help you maximise your CBD experience. Our CBD Sleep Gummies contain restful passion flower and chamomile. We have other CBD gummy formulations that make use of a variety of essential nutrients. Our Turmeric and Spirulina CBD Gummies harness the antioxidant and wellness benefits of two powerful superfoods. Our Apple Cider Vinegar CBD Gummies are great for dieting and gut health. And our Multivitamin CBD Gummies give you your daily dose of vitamins and minerals, plus the added wellness benefits of CBD. Whatever your wellness needs, we have a tasty, chewy CBD gummy for you!The Benefits of CBD GummiesWellness Benefits: CBD itself is one of the most popular wellness products on the market today. This is due, in large part, to the effect of CBD on the body’s endocannabinoid system. CBD and other cannabinoids mimic the body’s own endocannabinoids, which interact with receptors in a variety of organs and systems throughout the body, allowing them to maintain homeostasis (or balance). This helps the body to regulate such crucial functions as sleep, appetite, mood, motor control, memory, pain management, immune function, stress management, and much more. It’s these wellness benefits that make a CBD product like our gummies such a great health supplement to have around the house, whether it’s for a morning nutrition boost or a great night’s sleep.Convenience: CBD-infused gummies are a convenient (and tasty!) way to get a daily wellness blast of CBD. Gummies are also easy to use. There’s no measuring hemp oil or filling a CBD vapouriser. You simply eat them! Just remember that our gummies are not your traditional sweets, and you should adhere to our recommended dosage.Consistent Dosage: With consistent dosage in every chewable gummy, these popular products give you the peace of mind of knowing exactly how much CBD you’re taking with every one of our sweets.Delicious Flavour: Every gummy in our CBD Gummies collection has delicious natural fruit flavour, making them an absolute treat to eat — with no additives or preservatives!Non-Intoxicating: All of our gummies adhere to UK CBD legislation and are under the legal threshold of less than 0.01 THC.Nutritional Information: While our gummies come in a variety of formulations, they all have certain nutritional information in commonHow Many CBD Gummies Should I Eat?All of our vegan CBD gummies have a recommended serving size of two gummies (25 mg CBD each, 50 mg CBD per serving). That said, if this is your first time taking CBD, we recommend beginning with one gummy to see how you react to the CBD. If you seem to be getting all the CBD effects you desire, stop there. If you feel like you need more, then the next time you take CBD gummies, go ahead and try two.CBD Gummies for Pain, Sleep & StressIn addition to its many wellness benefits, CBD can also have a calming effect on the mind and body. In daily wellness products, such as CBD Multivitamin Gummies, the complementary ingredients make use of those calming properties to give mental focus without physical sluggishness. But with CBD Sleep Gummies, the additional ingredients intensify those calming effects and help the body prepare for sleep. As a result, CBD sleep products are quite effective in helping you not only fall asleep quickly, but also to sleep uninterrupted through the night.Many adults take CBD for minor pain, and it’s worth trying CBD if you’re experiencing minor muscle and joint pain. Likewise, CBD has many calming qualities that many find useful in combating stress. Many people find CBD Gummies particularly convenient for keeping in a handbag or backpack, just in case their nerves start kicking in. Gummies are a quick, convenient way to experience the calming effects of CBD.Why Buy CBDfx’s Gummies?All of our CBD gummies contain naturally grown CBD and all-natural ingredients (no GMOs or pesticides!). We also use safe extraction processes, so you never have to worry about solvent residues, as in cheaper CBD products. The result is a pure, safe, and potent CBD experience. This purity and potency can be verified by lab reports created by independent, third-party laboratories (called a Certificate of Analysis, or COA), which are available on our website. Your safety and satisfaction is our primary concern at CBDfx!Are CBDfx’s CBD Gummies Vegan?Yes! We only use natural vegetable-based ingredients in our CBD oil gummies, so you can rest assured that your gummy isn’t just organically grown — it’s also vegan!How Long Do CBD Gummies Last?CBD gummies are considered CBD edibles, which means the CBD is absorbed into the bloodstream through your digestive tract. While this takes the CBD a bit longer to kick in than, say, a sublingual CBD oil, the benefit is that the effects can last as long as six to eight hours. But be patient, CBD gummies, pills and other edibles can take 30 minutes to two hours to fully kick in, depending on bioavailability factors.CBD Gummies Vs CBD Oil Drops: What’s The Difference?As noted above, CBD gummies are considered edibles. That means the CBD is absorbed into your bloodstream through your digestive system, which can take between 30 minutes and two hours, depending on bioavailability factors (height, weight, body mass, and other variables). Once the CBD effects kick in, though, they can last as long as six to eight hours.CBD oil tinctures are absorbed through the capillaries under the tongue. This allows the CBD to enter your bloodstream much quicker (sometimes as quickly as 15 minutes). But the effects of a sublingual CBD oil typically last from two to six hours — less than the effects of CBD edibles.Can CBD Gummy Products Get You High?The oil we use in our CBD sweets is extracted from hemp, the low-THC form of cannabis. And CBD, itself, is non-intoxicating. So, our CBD gummies can’t get you high. All of our CBD products are formulated for wellness and fall within the UK legal threshold of less than 0.01 THC.Can You Take CBD Edibles For Sleep?In addition to its many wellness benefits, CBD can also have a calming effect on the mind and body. Blended with other effective ingredients, as in our CBD Sleep Gummies, CBD can be ncredibly beneficial as a sleep aid.Can You Take CBD Edibles For Pain?CBD can be taken for relief from minor pain.Can You Take CBD Edibles For Stress?CBD has calming properties that people find useful for easing stress.Can CBD Gummies Make You Fail A Drug Test In The UK?Our CBD gummies are all made with broad spectrum CBD, which has all detectable amounts of THC removed (THC being the cannabinoid most drug tests scan for). You should be okay using CBD gummies, however CBD can build up, over time, in your system. So, there is a small chance for a false positive result for people who regularly take CBD gummies. Here’s a handy guide to CBD and drug tests.I’ve Never Tried CBD Gummies. What Can I Expect?
